"You're too old for games! You should be more into clothes and s**t!"
Pretty much what my mother keeps telling me, the broken record that she seems to be turning into.
See, I'm looking to sell my GameCube, all eighteen games I have for it, the controllers and the memory cards so that I can possibly afford a PSP and Dissidia. If only because of Kefka.
She use to say something similar to the quoted words before, but nowadays she's saying it more and more and more - I wish she'd shut up about it. I like video games. So ******** what?
She likes soaps. She should grow up and watch something that isn't so ******** stupid. But do I say anything?
It isn't like we can select and choose what we find fun, is it? We either find something fun, or we don't.
Video games are pretty much interactive storybooks, besides! And what about the adult rated games, gods ******** damnit!? "Games are for children" my hairy a**. Some are, but not all. Hell, I've recently just broken through to the age where I can legally buy adult-oriented games, and I'm suppose to adhere to 'games are for children'? Ahahaha.
Yes, video games with blood, gore, murdering, graphic content and the like are for children. All video games are for children. When you reach adulthood, you're expected to get rid off all things childish and find totally new likes and dislikes, hobbies and interests.
That's what it seems like she's saying.
And what about the people who make the games? Oh, they must also be childish, even if they have knowledge of all things it takes to make a ******** game. Things you go to college or university and study to learn. Yep, games are for children, and they make games, so. Obviously!
Ugh.
Of course, this is all coming from a twenty year old who still lives with it's parents... But it's free room and board while I'm attending college, and no one will ******** hire me, besides. I don't have enough experience I'm sure is the problem, but damnit, of course I ******** don't.
My mother has suggested spamming places with resumés, but I've heard that people have gotten told off for that. I don't handle hostility very well.
I ******** hate aging.
Edit: Also, to quote my dad in reference to me,
"Gimme, gimme gimme gimme" - what the hell is this suppose to mean?
I'd understand if I were demanding that they got me what I wanted, but I'm going to be trying to sell off my Gamecube and related items to get the money.
It just doesn't make any ******** sense.
Unless he means time-wise, as I'm often stuck babysitting the dog. Which irritates me quite a lot, as even if I do waste most of it, I still value my time... And the dog is annoying. Barks to get out (naturally, I assume at which point he needs to use the bathroom) and when let out, just sits there... Can't be left alone, either! He's of the attention-whoring sort. And he's apparently gotten loose once already.
Plus he's irritating.
What are they going to do about him when I do get out of here? Ha!
